[FR] Nextcloud integration

[xplosionmind]

Nextcloud already supports online live collaborative Markdown editing. Unfortunately, though, the desktop clients do not support CRDT editing yet.

It would be great if Relay could use Nextcloud as an authentication provider, and use Nextcloud capabilities to operate the backend.

The nextcloud client regularly breaks badly. I just last week had to fix a bug where a customer unwittingly updated to 4.0.2 before 4.0.3 came out and forcing a resync basically trashed the server. The server which actually handles the CRDT editing uses a binary websocket which is not PHP's strongsuit (and Nextcloud is written in PHP). I would strongly doubt if it makes sense to put any effort towards integrating relay with nextcloud except maybe using it as an auth provider.
